Date: February 09, 2007 04:45PM It's really bad!
One day, my daughter and I read a huge article about just how bad aspartame really is for a person, so I decided that if we were ever going to buy gum for a special treat, it would have to contain real sugar. Sugar might be bad, but if I had to chose between that and aspartame, well.... Do you know, we had a really hard time finding any brand of gum any more sweetened with just good old-fashioned sugar - they all add aspartame - interesting! Go ahead, check for yourself, see if you have better luck than we did! Sometimes, if I really want something to chew on like that, I will pick up some dried mangoes from the health food store. They aren't treated with stuff, so they are dark brown, and I can't vouch for the temperature, so not sure if they would really be considered raw, but you can chew a piece of dried mango for a pretty long time, and it's really sweet. Be careful though, the ones at the grocery store look really pretty, but I am sure they are loaded with additives. Wonder if anyone else can suggest any good substitutes? Good luck, Sapphire Re: GUM

Date: February 09, 2007 07:22PM My son said that if the whole world was distroyed by a nuclear blast, only 2 things would survive, cockroaches & gum.
If gum could survive a nuclear blast, imagine gum in your stomach, since the residue of gum goes into your digestive system. When my son told me this, I've never chewed gum since. Re: GUM

As a substitute for gum, have you tried dehydrated strawberries? Also, there are more natural versions of gum at your healthfood store. C Get Your Free Raw Food Starter Guide E-Book at: [www.rawglow.com] Find Your Inner Glow! Re: GUM

Date: February 25, 2007 12:22AM In perusing some literature provided by Prism I found some "dental gum" so thought I'd pass it on. I haven't read anything about it. I just saw it, remembered this thread, so I'm posting it.
